 My client supports both models and I use different models for different
mailboxes. For example, I use delete-expunge model for this mailing list
because I really don't need to keep the copies of the messages which can be
found in the list archives. However I do like trash model for other
mailboxes because it allows me to keep the deleted messages if I ever need
them again. Think about trash as being "archive" in this case.

 I'd be interested in hearing your thoughts about how could this UI be
implemented in a better way from IMAP point of view. But personally I can't
think of anything.

 Thanks,
